Discussion The BruentrupHeritage Farmbuildings and yardareowned by the CityofMaplewood and leased to MAHS, which manages them.MAHS would like to make improvements in the yard toimprove access and drainage patternsand better serve programming needs. Attached is MAHS’s letter of request and supporting information explaining the project (Attachment 1). Bob Jensen, MAHS President, will present the project at the February Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) meeting. The key changesfor the yardare: 1)Widen the walkway from the parking lot. 2)Close the existing driveway and have carsenter from the parking lot. 3)Replace turf withcrushedlime rockon the north side ofthe machine shed. 4)Construct additionaldriveway connecting to parking circle. 5)Relocate farm signs. This is a concept proposal by MAHS. In spring 2018, City staff will be working with MAHS to evaluate drainage on the site and develop a more detailedplan for drainage, walkways, driveways, and sign locationsthat meetboth MASH and City needs. Once a detailed plan is developed, it will be submitted to the HPC. At this time, the HPC should review the proposal to providegeneral input and ensure the concept presented will not negatively impact the historic structures on the site.A formal review following Department of Interior standards is not required at this time.

Ron Cockriel - Nominated by Chair Boulay, Letter submitted by Cockriel Dear Maplewood Heritage Commission members, Staff, I would like to be considered for the Maplewood Heritage Award recognizing my efforts and involvement with many other citizens of the important events that has transpired over the past decades in the City that has created what we know to be Maplewood’s Heritage. My involvement with the City of Maplewood and the community I have resided in for more than thirty years is extensive and diverse. To start I would like to highlight my involvement with Maplewood’s “big three” with regards to citizen’s efforts to preserve our community’sheritage – Save our Open-spaces, Save the Barn, Save Fish Creek. The pride in Maplewood to preserve and protect our Natural, Culturaland Built environments is well known to have been driven by citizens’ efforts and supported by staff and councils and is legendary and goes to the core of protecting our heritage. Already active with many other efforts to protect open spacesthroughout the area I was recruited to join forces with the Maplewood citizen’s efforts with a successful open space referendum to raise 5 million dollars to preserve our natural heritage.A first in the nation success story. This was the easy part – the real work had just begun. To identify sites, issues and management plans has taken decades of citizens, Citystaff and endless needs to fund ongoing efforts. I supported these efforts with my active participation with the Parks and open space task force, Maplewood Greenway task force, 2020 cities comp plans, commission and a charter member of Friends of Maplewood Nature a nonprofit charged with protecting and improving our natural assets. Recentlyrecognized by the Friends of St. Paul and Ramsey County Parks and Trails as volunteer of the year. Protecting our natural places is key to our heritage. “Save the Barn”. A citizens effort to preserve our City’s built places is the soul of the organization, MaplewoodArea Historical Society (MAHS).Another first ofitskind Citizen’s effort. I worked for several years with this group of dedicated people. My efforts included opening up the barn for active programming, andjust about anything George,Carolyn,Char and Bill needed me to do. I also developed alandscaping and gardens plan with the Maplewood garden club. I was instrumental in bringing the National Preservation Conference to Maplewood and the Barn so Maplewood could tell itsstory to the nation.How an engaged citizenry can make a difference. In my dual role in Preservation in Maplewood I was elected chairperson for five years of the Maplewood Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC), the city’s recognized sister to the MAHS. The Commission with renewed citizens’ involvement and support from staff “found ourlegs”. A great deal was accomplished in those years as we rededicated ourselves to the Commission’s purpose.Some accomplishments are that we underwrote our mission statement, planned and executed our City’s fiftiethanniversary City-wide celebration, Century Homes program, initiated F1 the demolition identification program and Heritage Award celebration. And most importantly set the ground work for the city to gain certified local government status CLG. This status allowed our citizens and city’s Preservation efforts to be officially recognized and eligible for funding. In addition to my chairperson functions with the HPC I was later elected chairperson for three years on the Parks and Recreation Commission during the City’s extensive Park plan update, whichincludeschapters on open space guidance and heritage preservation priorities within our Park system. (A side note here is I worked tirelessly at the state fair both, manned phone banks and conducted a presentation before Maplewood city council to supportthe successful MN legacy fund referendum that would fund statewide Preservation needs and efforts.) The “third big three” for Maplewood is leading the citizen’s effort via the Fish creek Initiative (FCI)to Save Fish creek from development and to protectthe natural wonder and significant archeology of the site thus recognizing our National Park-MNRRA.My discovering of a thousand year old bison bone at Fish Creek during a Watershed reconstruction project led to a requirement that the proposed new development survey the construction site. This survey identified other artifacts and recognized the importance of preserving the site as significant. I had the honor of participation in two City/MAHS sponsored “digs” that yielded more treasures and realization that saving Fish Creek was a good thing. I was elected vice chair of the city of Maplewood’s Fish Creek ad-hoc committeecharged to research and provide recommendations to City council for the Fish Creek greenway corridor. For me and many of the fellow citizens and staff of Maplewood can claim we are Preservation Proud! Brenda Rudberg – Nomination Submitted byChair Boulay Brenda served on the Maplewood Heritage Preservation Commission from April 2011 through May 2016 and worked diligently to preserve Maplewood's History. She kickstarted the Maplewood Historical Context Study.She came up with the idea for the “60 Stories” project and researched and wrote 15 stories for the project. She also improved cooperation between the Maplewood Heritage Preservation Commission and the Ramsey County Historical Society, which led to the 2015 Fish Creek Archeology Dig. Recommendation Makea recommendation on arecipient of the2017Maplewood Heritage Award. F2 MEMORANDUM TO: Heritage Preservation Commission FROM: Virginia Gaynor, Natural Resources Coordinator/HPC Liaison DATE: February 8, 2018 SUBJECT:2040 Comprehensive PlanHistoric Resources Chapter Introduction Every 10 years, all Twin Cities metrocities and countiesare required to update their comprehensive plan to ensure compatibility with the plans adopted by the Metropolitan Council. Heritage Preservation Commissioners will review an updated draft of the Historical Resources chapter of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Discussion The Comprehensive Plan Chapter on HistoricalResourcesis the Historic Preservation Plan for the City that will guide our work over the next 10 years and beyond.At the August 2017 Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) meeting, commissioners reviewed preliminary information on the chapter and provided input.At the October 2017 HPC meeting, commissioners reviewed the draft chapter on Historical Resourcesand provided input. An updated draft was reviewed by the Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee in November. Over the last month, the Comprehensive Plan has been available for public review and comment. The City held two Open Houses, postedinformation online, and had two online surveys available. While there were not a lot of comments received regarding Historical Resources, the few comments that were made stressed the importance of historical resources to the City and expressed appreciation for what the City was doing in this area. Attached is the current draft of the Historical Resources Chapter. Please review and be prepared at the meeting to provide any feedback. The next steps in the process will be for the entire Comprehensive Plan to be reviewed by the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee later this month, the Planning Commission in March, and then the City Council in April.

Key challenges include: The City has very little documentation or knowledge of historic sites and structures within our boundaries. their site and special practices that should be considered when making alterations or repairs. Redevelopment plans often do not include evaluation of historic structures. Preservation requires funding and professionals with specialized knowledge and training. Maplewood does not have a lot of structures that the general public would see as historic. Opportunities include: federal grants. Maplewood is eligible for state grants through the Arts and Culture Heritage Fund. the City and has strong leadership for its programming, which includes: maintaining the Bruentrup Heritage Farm, researching and archiving Maplewood history, and hosting educational programs. Structures built in the mid-20th century (Mid-century modern) are now historic. Much of Maplewood developed in that era and we have an educate residents about historic resources of this era.
